Major trends in the adoption of OERs: A discussion based on the findings of the 2023 GEM Report

The 2023 GEM Report analyzed the different pathways that countries have been taking to support access to connectivity and open educational resources, and to train teachers on these new and constantly evolving issues. The report showed that OERs can facilitate affordable, efficient and more inclusive content creation. OERS can improve the quantity and quality of relevant learning materials in a cost-efficient way and can improve inclusion in education by making education resources available to different learners. The GEM Report devoted a chapter to the evolution and latest evidence of the open education movement, a key driver of the expansion of technology in education. To support the preparation of this chapter, a background paper was commissioned on key issues in open educational resources. This session will discuss major trends in the adoption of OERs globally, looking into the impact of AI and the Covid-19 pandemic.
